RSLC, SGLF Combine to Raise Record $53.1 Million for 2021-2022 Cycle to Date
WASHINGTON, D.C. –– The Republican State Leadership Committee (RSLC) and its strategic policy partner, the State Government Leadership Foundation (SGLF) have combined to raise $53.1 million so far this cycle, outpacing what the groups brought in at this point in the 2019-2020 cycle by $18 million (51%). This achievement was driven by another strong fundraising quarter, as the groups raised $9.8 million from April through June of 2022. The RSLC and SGLF have already combined to raise 78% of their $68 million total haul from the 2019-2020 cycle.
“With their wagons hitched to President Biden’s failed record of soaring inflation, record gas prices, surging crime, and indoctrination in our schools, state Democrats know that the only way they can beat back a Republican wave in November is by kicking their national liberal money machine into overdrive to spend their way out of a political peril, but the RSLC won’t let it happen” said RSLC President Dee Duncan. “While we are ecstatic about the record pace of our fundraising so far this cycle, we’re determined to keep pushing our efforts to the limit so we have the resources needed to stay on offense and hold Democrats accountable for their being in lockstep with Biden’s disastrous leadership.”
The RSLC’s digital fundraising program is continuing to break records. The committee raised 55% more in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021. Other notable statistics for the digital program during the most recent fundraising period:
Total raised online: $2.3 million
New online donors: 15,218
Average online donation: $25.58
The RSLC will need to continue its historic fundraising in the coming months in order to fund all the initiatives the committee will engage in this cycle.
The RSLC is currently trying to flip state legislative chambers in Colorado and Minnesota as national Democrat groups devoted to state legislative races are “better resourced than ever before.”
The secretary of state races that RSLC will engage in this year will be more expensive than ever thanks to increased interest from national Democrats.
RSLC in February pledged to devote more resources than ever before to state Supreme Court races to fight back against the Democrats’ “Sue Until It’s Blue” map-rigging strategy.
